We are an active intergenerational congregation who are passionate about loving God, each other and our community. We strive to be Jesus focused and led by the Spirit. We may be a rural village, but God is at work. Exciting things are happening!

We seek to be a Bible-based, loving, united yet diverse church which reflects God’s heart for the world to our local community and beyond.

Our vision, which is based on scriptures from Isaiah 58, Ephesians 4 and Ezekiel 47, is to see everyone in the church grow as followers of Christ and, as we move in God’s power, to see our world transformed, spiritually, physically and emotionally.  

To this end, practical involvement with the wider community and mission support and involvement are very important to us.  We greatly value in-house opportunities for Bible based teaching /preaching and prayer, and for mutual support through our small groups, children’s and youth work, and various ministry groups.

​

We have a warm and mutually supportive relationship with Bream C of E Primary School. The school is part of the Severn Federation Academy Trust and as such has a Local Academy Committee (LAC), which includes two Foundation members.  Both places are currently filled by members of St James.  We welcome the school into the church bfor major festivals, the school leavers service and other events such as Experience Pentecost.
